Quick Summary

Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B1EB1 is a compact, multi‑feeder protection device designed to manage feeder supervision and signaling in industrial control panels. Engineers often face wiring complexity and slow fault isolation when expanding protection across multiple feeders, which this unit helps reduce. Specific certifications and compliance status are determined by the manufacturer and may vary by configuration, with CE and regional approvals typically referenced on the datasheet. By leveraging Profibus-DP over D-Sub/RS-485, a wide input range, and flexible I/O, the solution delivers reliable protection, streamlined wiring, and scalable performance that supports efficient panel design and maintenance planning.

FAQs

Begin with the projection mounting method and secure removable terminals for straightforward maintenance. Connect 16 inputs and 11 outputs to corresponding feeder circuits, wire the power supply across 19–300VDC or 40–250VAC, and link Profibus-DP over D-Sub / RS-485 to your PLC. The design supports efficient wire routing and minimizes field wiring errors.
Confirm voltage supply compatibility (19–300 VDC, 40–250 VAC) and frequency (50/60 Hz). Check that you have 16 inputs and 11 outputs configured for your feeders, and ensure Profibus‑DP communication is mapped correctly to the control system. Pay attention to voltage sensing inputs and current sensing ranges (5 A and 1 A) for accurate protection logic.
Yes. The model includes Zone Selective Interlocking capability and one interlock channel, enabling faster fault isolation and reduced outage impact. When integrated with compatible protection relays and a PLC, you can implement selective feeder tripping while preserving overall system reliability.
Manufacturer guidance governs certifications and region‑specific approvals; refer to the datasheet and product page for CE, SIL, IP considerations, and any country‑level clearances. If your application requires strict compliance, contact Eaton support or your regional distributor to confirm the exact certifications for your configuration.
Maintenance benefits come from removable terminals, conformal coating for rugged environments, and a compact form factor that reduces cabinet space. ROI improves through simplified wiring, faster fault diagnosis (via built‑in diagnostics and shared communication with PLCs), and scalable I/O for future expansion without a full system redesign.
